I just bought a 1992 Max IV 6 wheeler. I'm located in Greenville SC and was wondering if anyone knew someone that worked on these anywhere close to my location. The chains need tightening and possibly 1 or 2 sprockets replaced. There is a load popping sound coming from the left side main sprocket when turning it to the right and the chain sounds like it is jumping off the sprocket.

Hi from Perth, Australia. Just got a Max2, and am cleaning it up. Looks like it has a lot of mechanical issues though and I'm still learning about them.

Hello Mike,
I live in Bemidji, Mn, the home of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox. We can get all four season in one day. My brother and I have a Viking snowmobile collection (26) some in mint condition. I also own a very rare 1941 BRC40. I pastor a small church here in my hometown and a number of years ago one of our members has a metal fabricating company called "EvenAire Systems, he picked up a old 1970 model O79 Amphicat. He took the body of and reproduced a polished aluminum body right down to the exact detail. The end of last summer I had got stuck gave it some rpms to get out and did some minor damage to the transmission. So I am looking for some info on the trans. I been on your website from time to time.
Thanks, Derek S. Claypool

Greetings. I have been introduced into the world of amphibious ATVs via an outdoors YouTube channel I have come across. Ever since, I've been wanting to learn more about these quirky machines. The reason I come here is to do exactly that; learn about 6 wheelers and have a handful discussions about them. I go on occasional camping trips in and out of Ohio and like outdoors talk.

Hello, my name is Mike. I don't own an AATV but I've been looking to buy one for years. Hopefully, that will change soon but if not I'll continue to enjoy and value what this site has to offer.

Good day all, my name is Stéphane. I the owner of a 2019 6X6 Frontier 570cc. Got this to have some fun. It’s been less than a month, it floats, throws dirt and with the snow we had last week, the 18” plastic tracks are really amazing. The whole family likes this. So being in the region of Ottawa, Ontario Canada, I sure would like to meet up with others. The adventures are just beginning. Thank you for allowing me on your site, so much to learn and share.

Steve,

Welcome to the site and the hobby. You can check out https://6x6parts.com/ for parts. Mud flaps are typically an item that you would make yourself.

If you are looking to ride with a bunch of other 6 wheelers, check out our Busco Beach semi-annual rides in April and October.

Welcome to the site. Take the valve core out and suck the air out with a shop vac micro tool. Then just put the valve cap back on until you get the tracks on. Then put cores back in. Tires will deflate so much they will form a triangle or square.

I don't know what happened to the old thread so I will sticky a new one here. All of the introduction posts can go here so they are in one thread.

Don't be shy, tell us a little about yourself. Do you own an amphibious atv? If so, what kind. Where do you live, etc?

We look forward to meeting you.

Mike

Not sure if this is the correct place to drop the intro. Anyway... Hello to all & best regards to you & yours. May all good things come your way. People in this world of off road action are unique and of a special breed & stand proud. They also know what Oh Sh@t means in the thrill of it all. Take the chance when you dance on the dirt, dont forget to bring extra underwear approach safely, throw caution to the wind.

Lots of great information on the site. Recently picked up a MaxII with tracks to get into some hunting property our family has. Works great but thought I had a bearing issue. Turned out to be the front chains were binding. Removed them and all is well. I would like to find out how to deflate the tires with a shop vac though. Having trouble getting the tracks back on. Great site, I've learned a lot. Only hope I can add something in the future. Thanks all.

Hello everyone. This is my second Argo, having sold the first after the motor went. Second one has been standing for some time and I can't get the Tecumseh to rev up. Bogs and dies. Cleaned the carburetor but no difference. Can't get a new main valve as it's obsolete. Any suggestions, help?

Post something up in the engine forum, pics are helpful along with location. Tecumseh's take a little finesse and time to figure out.
